| Description |
There is a magical complexity about the patterns
on this pot and a myriad of ways one can
interpret them. Do the designs represent the
four primal elements--earth, wind, fire and
water? A confrontation between good and evil? A
landscape with mountains, rivers, fields and
clouds? This lovely vessel is a self-contained
universe waiting to be explored.
